alt=\"Beginner Spanish Foreign Languages for Kids by Kids Review\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a>My family received:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"bbc_list\">\n<li>DVD with videos for Levels 1-3<\/li>\n<li>Three Parent-Teacher Guides<\/li>\n<li>Flashcards and Card Games for Levels 1 to 3<\/li>\n<li>Workbooks for Levels 1-3<\/li>\n<li>Stickers for Levels 1-3<\/li>\n<li>Go Squish Card Game<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Flight 101: Basketballs Aren&#8217;t for Breakfast\u00a0starts off in the morning with three boys and their mom\u00a0getting ready for breakfast.\u00a0 Then you follow the family\u00a0throughout their day.\u00a0\u00a0You watch\u00a0segments of the video during every lesson and will\u00a0watch the segments multiple times for the repetition.\u00a0\u00a0The kids and I\u00a0accidently watched the entire video for Level 1 the first time we played it.\u00a0 We were enjoying it so much that I completely forgot about having to stop the video\u00a0at the\u00a0time marker\u00a0for lesson 1.\u00a0 (There is no marker on the\u00a0DVD to let you know to stop the video).\u00a0\u00a0At the conclusion of the video\u00a0it left the girls and I wanting to watch more.<\/p>\n<p>The Guide for Teachers and Parents has everything laid out for you!\u00a0 It makes it easy for those who have had no prior knowledge of the Spanish language.\u00a0 There are vocabulary word banks in the guide that include the English translation\u00a0 of the words.\u00a0 During every lesson you will watch either a portion of or the entire segment of the video and then there\u00a0a few activities, including games,\u00a0to do.\u00a0 You will repeat the lessons multiple times and it is very flexible\u00a0in fitting the needs of your family.\u00a0\u00a0You can\u00a0complete this program at\u00a0the pace that works best for your family!<\/p>\n<p>The flash cards are colored coded by level.\u00a0 Blue for level 1, green for level 2, and red for level 3.\u00a0 There is a set of picture cards, word cards, and\u00a0word bank cards.\u00a0 The word cards are all in Spanish and they match the picture cards.\u00a0 Every picture card is numbered so you can quickly glance at the word bank cards for the answer.\u00a0 The cards are used in the Go Squish Card Game and other activities that are found in the teacher&#8217;s guide.\u00a0 They are open ended so you can design your own game or activity as well.<\/p>\n<p>All of the very bright and\u00a0colorful\u00a0pages of the student workbooks\u00a0are printed on\u00a0quality paper.\u00a0 The workbooks are designed for upper elementary students.\u00a0 In the workbooks there are various activities to be completed by the students.\u00a0\u00a0If you have younger students you can complete the workbook together.\u00a0 The activities include a word search, a cross word, decoding words, and answering questions.\u00a0\u00a0If needed, the\u00a0answers are provided in the back of the book.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1587\" src=\"https:\/\/lifeofahomeschoolmomma.files.wordpress.com\/2016\/08\/img_0126.jpg?w=300\" alt=\"IMG_0126\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Sheets of stickers with vocabulary words are provided to be placed around the house to aid\u00a0in helping the students remember the vocabulary that they have learned.\u00a0 I didn&#8217;t want to encourage\u00a0my kids to stick stickers on things around the house so Sweet Pea and I brainstormed on how we could use them.\u00a0 Sweet Pea decided to place the stickers on colored\u00a0card stock and cut around the edges.\u00a0 As you can see in the photo below she added a design to the edges while she was cutting them out.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1586\" src=\"https:\/\/lifeofahomeschoolmomma.files.wordpress.com\/2016\/08\/img_0125.jpg?w=225\" alt=\"IMG_0125\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" \/><br \/>\nThe Go Squish card game is similar to &#8216;Go Fish&#8217;.\u00a0 The game is designed for 2-4 four players but with additional cards (either using the cards from the other\u00a0levels or buying an additional set of cards) you can play with more children.\u00a0 It is suggested to have a second set of cards if you have non readers playing so you will have two sets of the picture cards.\u00a0 The object of the game is to get enough\u00a0miles for Squisher\u00a0to go visit his friend through matching the pairs together.<\/p>\n<p>I think this beginner Spanish set is a great way to introduce Spanish to children!\u00a0 It is designed to\u00a0teach\u00a0to the various learning styles and\u00a0it keeps the kids engaged.\u00a0\u00a0The girls want to continue using Foreign Languages for Kids by Kids along with the program that they have been using.<br \/>\nVisit Foreign Languages for Kids by Kids on Facebook: <a class=\"bbc_link\"
